Price Per Lot: $3.80
Lots Available: 20
Style No. (bin): F663 (dpa~c)

Style: F663
Beads per lot: 50
Cost per bead: 7.6 cents
Bead material: Glass
Country of origin: Czech Republic
Size/shape: 6mm (wide) x 3mm (thick) rondelles (tire-shaped beads) with facets around the outer edge.
Colors/description: Clear glass with a spray of metallic color on each side of the bead.  Judging from the pictures, the colors include a light bronze (or celsian color), a dark bronze, and hematite.
Hole size: 1mm (estimated).
Defects: All fire-polished beads have some defective facets.
How photographed: Under two daylight-balanced lamps.  Note:  Using lamps leaves two bright spots on each bead -- especially on round beads -- but that can't be helped.  The close-up shots may also show defects that the human eye can't discern.
Comments: In my picture, I show the beads in three ways:  Strung, on their sides, and in a jumble.

These are pretty beads.  I have carried similar beads before, but not exactly the same.  The supplier calls this color "valent", short for valentinite (a multi-colored mineral oxide), but I think that name is too obscure, since no one knows what valentinite is.
